Triad City Beat Lying to their readers and Guilford County's rising seniors about Say Yes to Education

"Say Yes to Education

Half of the money to fund the endowment — $70 million — had already been raised by the time Say Yes Guilford launched in September..."

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg failed to inform the public of the unsustainability of the program.

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg failed to tell their readers that most of the Say Yes money isn't in hand, but will be 'gifted' over a series of years, especially the biggest chunks, with no knowledge of what the money is invested in or how much the program is going to cost.

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg are fucking clueless

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg failed to tell the public how much each student may receive in 2016, and in 2017 when the number of scholarships should double, and in 2019, when the expected number of scholarships should double again, because they don't know, as they probably haven't asked, and Say Yes isn't saying if they did, because Say Yes has already been asked, and declined to provide any information including multiple years of tax returns which are supposed to be public records.

Brian Clarey, Jordan Green and Eric Ginsburg should have the temerity to tell some truth once in a while, instead of acting as a mouthpiece for Greensboro's aristocracy while swimming in a sea of financial illiteracy.

But they didn't, don't and probably won't, as speaking truth to power would probably put them out of business, so they will likely continue to act as stenographers for our ruling class, just like Greensboro's News and Record and Roy Carroll's Rhino Times who are playing along with the ruse.
